Cockroaches hate the light

So I come back home today (March 24, 2002), after going to look at where my new house will be built and after talking to my sales lady about adding another option, and guess what I found in my inbox -- a threat! To be expected, I guess, after Robin Hood Software parades my address and phone number (or what they THINK is my address and phone number!) on their web site in a blatant attempt to get their affiliates to physically harass me. Woo hoo, I'm *SOOOO* scared. Yeah right. Although I guess I ought to report this to the police anyhow.

Is the campaign to reveal these people on track? YES! You can always tell when the poison is working when the cockroaches crawl out from the baseboards and start frothing and running in circles!

What follows is the full message. BTW, have you ever noticed that this class of people can never spell (hey, dimwit, that's spelled "liar", not "lyer"), and has grammar that would flunk 2nd grade? Hell, my trailer trash relatives do better than this!

Without further ado:

A little hint for Guni: This is Phoenix, Arizona, the Wild West, where half the population has a concealed carry permit and the other half has an aluminum baseball bat or shotgun handy. We don't wait for cops to come take reports around here if someone tries to pull some shit. Phoenix residents tend to have a more... uhm... direct... response, like the guy who saw a carjacker flip a truck, crawl out, and start running... who proceeded to run up to the carjacker and beat the shit out of him with a baseball bat. And unlike Back East where he would have gotten arrested by the cops for violating the rights of that poor innocent carjacking crook, he pretty much got a medal from the cops here, not to mention front page billing as a hero in the local newspaper. That's Phoenix.

So if you go trying to harass the innocent person at the address that Robin Hood Software put on their web site (a person who is not me), be forewarned: he's likely to be armed, dangerous, and not in the best of moods if you try some shit on him. Just a little friendly advice. This isn't jolly olde England, where the usual response to armed force is much wailing and wringing of hands about the horror of it all. This is Phoenix, Arizona.

And now, a bonus screed from yet ANOTHER Evidence Eliminator supporter, AGAIN demonstrating the astounding literary skills and erudition of this breed:
